1980s technology party! All your old friends are here.

See, over there is the VHS tape, and cassette tape. And look there is film and a real floppy disk.

Music was a lot different back in my day.

We had 12 songs total on a cassette and they were usually all from the same artist. We’d listen to the first 6 and then we had to flip over to hear the next 6 songs. Fast forward and rewind took more than a split second and you hardly ever got it right. There was no repeat either. Plus if you listened to the tape too much, it killed itself.

This Is A Cassette Tape

For those kids who don’t know what a cassette tape is, this is one of them. It’s from the 80s before CDs, MP3s and iPods. It had about 6 songs on one side, then you flipped it over and there were 6 more songs.

It wasn’t easy to skip songs, wasn’t easy to find songs and shuffle really wasn’t something it understood.

Ahhh the good ol’ days.
